Lover Lovers

















Hey hey! So I went well and truly overboard uploading pics today, but it's been a while since I've been on here and I got excited! I'm obsessed with my new One Teaspoon Lovers (note I would consider myself to be a size 10/28 usually but I went right down to a 25 on these and I think I could have gotten away with a 24 if they had have been there, so they run real big) and I teamed them with my amazing Spell duster and Midnight Eagle tee via Lexi and Roy. I can never get enough of boots so I threw on my vintage cowboy babies that you may have seen before! It has been a busy few weeks for me starting work but I'm so glad I've got the opportunity to come back home and have a couple of relaxing days. I love doing my blog as a creative outlet for myself, but I would like to thank anyone who has or is stopping by to have a look! Not sure when I will be back here next for some more frolicking in the garden, but keep your eyes peeled :D

Love and light

Wednesday Crochet













Hey lovers,
I'm about to head off to Perth to get ready for starting my new job tomorrow, yaaay! Super nervous though which is standard for me. I am totally in love with my new Spell Havana mini via Lexi and Roy and I've teamed it with a few different things including my favorite epic vintage vest from Backbite. I was feeling pretty porcelain coming off the back of winter, but I thought I would rep it for the pale girls anyway ;)

Love and light

Spring in My Step










 






Coming off the back of my August buying ban, I went into my wardrobe once again to see what goodies I had been neglecting. My Spell Crystal Visions muscle tee is pretty much a staple for me, but I decided I would team it with my Aloha Python shorts that you may have seen before on me in my post Working the Land (Not Really At All) back in May and one hell of a 1970s ski jacket my Dad gave me, that my aunty made even better with the eagle on the back! Throw in a pair of the raddest boots that my mum got in Italy in the 70s, and I am ready to roll with my trusty Westie Gracie by my side. Speaking of rolling, it has been an interesting couple of weeks in terms of working towards my dream of working in fashion retail. I had a job trial at a clothing store, and it was such a rewarding challenge to be able to help people find pieces! I wasn't sure if I would be capable of styling other people on the spot, but I think I did really well and am super proud of myself! I am yet to hear back so have your fingers crossed for me :) I have also been spending a fair bit of time trying on goodies at Lexi and Roy so expect to see some of that in the coming weeks now that I can buy again hehe

Love and light,
Kath

The ban







Ahhhh August. The month I chose to ban myself from buying clothes online or in the shops. As it draws to a close, I almosttt made it but I bent the rules a little. How could I not with the drop of the Bohemian Royale collection over at my very favorite Spell Designs. I hotfooted it up to Perth last Friday to try on a heap of it at Lexi and Roy and ended up putting the crochet mini on layby. Fell in love with everything! Back home today, I delved into my wardrobe and pulled out this H&M maxi I bought in Malaysia last year, and threw it on with a Sportsgirl necklace from a while back and my ever reliable Arnhem boots. I have a lot of stuff, and one of the reasons for the ban was to help me go back into my wardrobe and wear more of what I already own instead of seeking out new things. An easy outfit that I will wear again and again (although maybe with my Gypsy Queen bralette next time to avoid that nippy situation hahaha) 

Love and light

On a Glorious Day






Lovers!
I am back on the blog after a bit of a break. And I am back in Spell, which as we all know is my all time fave hehe. I put the Fleetwood blouse on layby in early July through Call Me the Breeze and paid it off pretty damn quickly so I could basically just stare at it - it is one of those pieces that I can barely bring myself to wear because it is just so beautiful! Meanwhile, I declared August a clothes buying free zone. It's been ok so far, but get back to me in a few days! It will be a good opportunity for me to delve further into what I already own for coming posts though I think. These shots were taken this afternoon in the beautiful sunshine with my Dad on camera and my Mum ordering me around to smell the flowers and get in amongst the undergrowth, hence why I am mid-mad-laugh in a few of these. It feels good to be back, I promise not to leave it three weeks this time!

Love and light
